Turn off of West Calispell Loop Rd onto FR2022 then turn right onto FR3540 continue on until the saddle park on the left. There is no trail to the summit, I had to bushwack to the top. Plenty of trees on top won't need a Pole.
Access 2WD

Nice hike in the Lake Wenatchee area near Plain WA. From US 2 turn onto HY 207 at Coles corner. Turn right onto HY 207 and follow through Plain WA and continue to the top of the hill (47.753780, -120.646782) where there is a large parking lot. The trail head is across the road on the south side of the road.
The trail is good but steep in places but there are good views along the way. The hike to the summit is .78 miles. There is little view at the summit but the area is large enough to erect an EFHW or dipole antenna.

28 October, 2013 Bandera Mtn W7W/KG-073
Our original hiking destination for this day was going to be 7000 ft Norse Peak, an 8 pointer, near Crystal Mtn Ski Resort, a bit north and east of Mt Rainier National Park. The Mt Rainier WX report predicted 30-40 MPH winds at Paradise and Camp Muir in the National Park. We took off for our backup hiking destination: Bandera Mtn.
Goat Peak - W7W/MC-026 – 13 October, 2013
Goat Peak is located east of the Cascade Crest. Myself, partner Ms Pat WT7N, and Bro Mike drove 19 miles east of Chinook Pass on Hiway 410 to one of the three Goat Peak THs. Our TH is located directly across the highway from the Hells Crossing Camp Ground. Garmin said that the distance to the summit was 3.2 miles with an elevation gain of 3000 ft. BTW, we did not take the http://www.wta.org/go-hiking/hikes/goat-peak-1 recommended route.
Sunday, Oct 6
High Rock Lookout is a popular 3.5 mile RT jaunt that gains 1400 ft. I will be the seventh SOTA op to activate this peak. This location is touted by outdoor photographers as the 'cat's meow' for mountain photographs. Also, this hike seems to attract those hikers (you've seen them) with no pack or jacket and only a bottle of water.
Sunday, July 28, 2013 myself, Pat WT7N, her bro Mike, and Chuck AC7QN hiked to Gobblers Knob- which is located in Mt Rainier National Park, WA State. There’s two ways to get to Gobblers Knob. We chose the shorter route that approaches from the west via Forest Rd 59 instead of the longer Westside Road route. See Washington Trails Assn’s hike info here:
Mt Defiance is one of the peaks along the I-90 Highway about 5 miles west of SnoqualmiePass. Washington Trails Assn’s hike info here:
